Exsanguination and Other Love Stories

Ever since graduating high school, orphan Sabilla "Bill" Vane has led a charmed life as a full-time cat warden. Florian Werther Bathory Byron, her unexpected house guest, is a vampire. And while he says he hasn't eaten anything with a face in half a century, his life story is tragic, his complexion is luminous (literally), and Bill is finding herself irresistibly drawn to him even as her charges begin to disappear at an alarming rate...
Includes the original story Exsanguination, as well as its sequel, Blue, and the bonus story Omega.

I think I'm going to love this story. What a captivating way to write. Your vampire's introduction, that descriptive paragraph with the umbrella, sealed the deal on this first chapter for me. And Bill just reds delightful!
